Little musty on the nose but the agave is there. Clean basic palate and easy to drink. No complexity but I like it
Nose: agave, thyme, olive, brine, cinnamon, minerality, black pepper. Mouthfeel: Balanced, Medium to full- bodied Palate: black pepper, minerality, green bell pepper Finish: Anise, wheat, alcohol, black pepper This was okay. The nose was decently complex, the mouthfeel was more viscous that I would have imaginwd. based on the nose but the palate and especially the finish seemed to fall short. There's not a lot of depth or complexity going on there. The finish itself is short lived and underwhelming. Not the worst but FAR from the best
At a cost of about $15 (on sale) to $20 for a 750ml bottle, Hacienda Vieja Tequila Reposado seems like a great value for the money.
